This is a critical analysis of the ongoing political debacle in Rivers State.

1. When the substantive suit of the defection of the law makers eventually gets to the Supreme Court, it will be discarded. The burden of proof is always a tough nut to Crack. APC has denied having the membership of the lawmakers. Once the transfer of their membership cannot be established, every other factor is an academic exercise. Forget about the public display of APC flag and all those rhetorics. Once their records cannot be confirmed in the membership register of APC at ward level, the whole legal gymnastics become mere academic exercises.

The burden of proof is always difficult to work out. Despite all the public outcry about Tinubu's drug case, fake certificates e.t.c, the petitioners could not execute the burden of proof and the cases were thrown out like piece of sheet at the Supreme Court. That is exactly what will happen in the case of the defection of the 27 law makers, except anyone just want to deceive himself or make themselves happy.

2. Fubara should be ready to trade-off. He got to the seat as a product of political tradeoffs. You can't have everything. People and negotiations were involved in the process that made him Governor. He can't discard them and want to enjoy the spoils of war alone. Its treachery. Let's not pretend to be idealists. We all know how the political ecosystem works in Nigeria. its a give and take system. Some people gave something, for him to take the governorship seat.

3. After few days of grandstanding, Fubara will mellow down and do exactly what the Supreme Court has ordered. He does not have any choice. He will have to work with the State House of Assembly. He needs them, as much as they need him.

4. If he refuses, the House of Assembly can impeach him. The Chief Judge of the state won't be able to do anything to help him. Disobeying Supreme Court judgment is an established ground for impeachment anywhere in the world. If his friend, the Chief Judge, set a 7-Man Panel, and they deem Fubara innocent, they will be clashing against the pronouncement of the Supreme Court. The Chief Judge will not desire to put his entire career and life-service on the line to serve Fubara's interest. When the chips are down, the Chief Judge will save his own head first

5. There is no way out of this for Governor Fubara. He just have to obey the judgment of the Supreme Court

6. I just hope he is getting the right advise. He shouldn't allow himself to be mislead. If he goes down, he would go down alone

kettykin:
Fubara has not lost anything, he only needs a lot of skills in slowly accelerating to 2026 by which time election fever has kicked in and even the law makers will be fighting for their political future. It is rather wike that will be left in the shadows because after 2027 , with or without Tinubu’s regime, he will be forever side tracked.
There is nothing actually the law makers can do to fubara

gare:
And would that be the end of his life? No. He would be celebrated as a man who stood and fought against a corrupt system.

This Yoruba monikers no dey reason like politcal diplomats ..

Na just straight on how e go suit their god .. like say dem dey deal with dummies

Dem no dey near rivers oh.. dem know no as e sub for Alpha ..

Na to hallucinate come online shout am.. like e make sense

Bro Fubara 2 term sure..

kettykin:
They think Rivers state is Lagos state, the whole rivers state is behind Fubara, all he needs to do is use brutal Rivers political force and force the recall of at least 10 of the state assembly members who are his arch enemies by lobbying his foot soldiers in those communities to sign the recall letters.

Once those disloyal legislators are politically executed, the remaining lawmakers will fall in line, tails between their legs, fully aware of the consequences of defying the governor. Fear is a powerful weapon, and Fubara must wield it mercilessly to secure his hold on Rivers State.

You can impeach a governor without the chief judge? Lmaooo which school una go self abeg

If the chief judge panel finds the governor not guilty of the offense then you go ahead an impeach him?

Did you guys do government in sec school

Sapeleboy911:
Forget the chief judge. It will be very easy for the chief judge to pick sides, and from all indications, you know whose side he will be on.
If those 27 lawmakers win the battle of defection SIM is in hot soup. I for one don't like Wike due to his power drunk attitude. Given the latest development that guy don hold SIM for Blockos.

Wallade:
Let him start it oh.

Buccalcavity2:
Dude. SC judgement is self indicting as it implies violation of the constitution...which is an impeachable offense. The CJ committee cannot contradict the SC, so CJ is left with little choice. Or was 2024 spending not done without assembly vetting, despite court ruling?
The article didnt say they can impeach without CJ.

Saltinny:
Yoruba man why won't you be impressed? you and your people always supporting greedy and Godfatherism Nigeria politicians and Agberos, who do you people this? spit

mrvitalis:
Which school did you go to please

Wallade:
Spit forever, it wouldn't bother or hurt me. I don't even know you and I honestly don't want to know you because you are tribal bigot.

So tell me, you don't support Godfatherism abi?

How did Fubara become Governor of Rivers State - was it not through a God father? Do you know how many prominent and eminent politicians that were bypassed to install Fubara as Governor.

The Fubara that you are supporting is also a product of Godfatherism and you dare criticise Yorubas to be supporters of Godfatherism as if you don't practice it to in your place or anywhere in the country.

Saltinny:
I don't know how he became Governor but Fubara said he no longer want to be slave to God fatherism, should it be by force? we don't practice Godfatherism here and we will resist anybody who dare try to turn River state to Tinubu Lagos, get it into your thick skull

mrvitalis:
Have you ever stayed in rivers state?
